Carolina Comfort Air opened their doors in Smithfield, NC with Phillip Tyler and Hank Richard at the helm in May of 2007. Since 2007 we have built a new base of operations in Clayton, NC on US 70 Business West. We have also been able to expand to the Jacksonville area with a second branch located on highway 17.
